Description
Y Y 80, 63000–
63005
HTTPS Used for passing files to the
target and retrieving the
logs through an internal
mini-HTTPS server. Uses
port 80 if it is available or a
random port between
63000 and 63005 if it is not
available. Allows updates of
the iLO firmware without
the need to access the host
server. This allows servers
running VMware or other
virtualization platforms to
update their iLO without the
need to reboot their server
or migrate their VMs to
other servers.
Y Y 61000–
61007
These ports are used from
the target server back to
the system running HP
Smart Update Manager. The
same mechanism is used by
the remote access code as
the 60000 ports, with the
first trial port as 61000.
There is no guarantee that
the upper limit is 61007
when a conflict occurs. For
the case of IPv4 and only
one NIC, the lowest
available one is used by HP
Smart Update Manager to
pass information between
processes on the local
workstation where HP
Smart Update Manager is
executed, and the next
available one is used to
receive messages from
remote servers.
Y 62000 and
62001
These ports (or the first two
ports available after 62000)
are used for internal
process communications on
the system running HPSUM
on each target.
Y 62286 This port is the default for
some internal
communications. It is the
listening port on the remote
side if there is no conflict. If
a conflict occurs, the next
available one is used.
Y Y 7 ICMP ICMP Echo Reply/Request is
used to determine whether
